When a grocery store is such a fun place for children to visit, wouldn’t a farmer’s market be an even more exciting destination for them? Hooray for the Farmer’s Market! illustrates many reasons that farmer’s markets are appealing places to visit—meeting artists, eating freshly baked foods, and listening to bands are just a few.
